Boss wanted the drive to pole barn made with the free sand and gravel from her old gravel pit. I put layers of clay, sand and gravel. Makes a great base, however it needs to be top coated with white rock. Each time I sweep the pole barn floor, there are shovels full of sand which comes in on the tires.

I could only imagine what wood chips would do. I use free wood chips in my flower beds. Wood chips only lasts about 4-5 years, decomposes.

Get rid of the water and you will get rid of the mud. Roads need to be crowned and drainage along the sides. Use the dirt along the sides to raise road.

Before I had a backhoe, I would use a tiller to soften up the dirt along the road and used a REDNECK backhoe and land mover, a shovel and wheelborrow.
